ROUND 4, PICK 125

RONNELL LEWIS

DE, Oklahoma

Lewis played a hybrid defensive end/linebacker position at Oklahoma but he projects to play with his hand down in Detroit. Nicknamed "The Hammer," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said "there's a reason for his nickname." The Lions are deep at end, so Lewis' biggest contributions this year likely will come on special teams, where he projects to play on both return and coverage teams.

ROUND 5, PICK 138

TAHIR WHITEHEAD

LB, Temple

Whitehead will play an off-the-ball linebacker role for the Lions, likely on the outside behind either Justin Durant or DeAndre Levy. He runs a sub-4.7-second 40-yard dash and like Lewis will make his most significant impact on special teams as a rookie. The Lions traded up to get him, so they like his developmental prospects.

ROUND 5, PICK 148

CHRIS GREENWOOD

CB, Albion

Another player the Lions traded up to get, Greenwood has good size (6-1) and tested off the charts at Michigan's pro day with a vertical jump of 43 inches and running a 4.42-second 40-yard dash. He's raw after transferring from Eastern Michigan to Albion, a Division III school, but Lions defensive coordinator Gunther Cunningham compared him to a small-school prospect he played a big role in drafting in Kansas City, Brandon Carr. Greenwood should find a role as a backup this season, but he'll need developmental time before seeing the field.

ROUND 6, PICK 196

JONTE GREEN

CB, New Mexico State

Green will have to battle for a roster spot as the third cornerback the Lions drafted, but he has the size they like at 6-foot. A three-year starter, he played mostly man-to-man coverage in college and is admittedly raw in his zone and off-man techniques. His best shot of seeing the field is on special teams.

ROUND 7, PICK 223

TRAVIS LEWIS

LB, Oklahoma

Lewis was a tackling machine at Oklahoma, leading the team all four seasons he played. He missed time as a senior with knee injury and played through a broken toe, but has a shot to make the team as a backup. Lewis projects as a core special teamer and could fight for a spot in the rotation next year.

THE TAKE

"We feel very good about (our draft) but I don't really care about grades, I care about winning games and you care about building a roster. Is what your draft grade is a tiebreaker for the playoffs next year? When it is let me know and then I'll worry about what our draft grade is. ... We don't draft guys to get rounds of applause or way-to-go or anything else. We draft guys that fit us that we like." -- Lions coach Jim Schwartz
